Walton VW Shoppers Choose The Best

Volkswagen has been doing it’s job, and well. They have been making waves with consumers and even produced double digit sales growth each month in 2011. In fact, the same day that the NACOTY jury named the Passat as a finalist, VW announced that it surpassed 300,000 in sales for the year. This feat was last achieved in 2003.

In the past calendar year, the Passat has been showered with prestigious awards, most significantly Motor Trend 2012 Car of the Year. Other honors for VW’s new American-built family sedan include:

• A 2011 TOP SAFETY PICK from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, one of nine such awards for the Volkswagen brand
• Ruedas ESPN Best Sedan
• Popular Mechanics Magazine 2012 Automotive Excellence Award for Fuel Efficiency (for the TDI® Clean Diesel model)
• 10 Best Redesigned Vehicle for 2012 by Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com

“2011 has been a good year for Volkswagen and breaking the 300,000 sales barrier serves as a proof point that our foundational elements of growth are gaining momentum,” said Jonathan Browning, President and CEO, Volkswagen Group of America. “Not only have our cars garnered the praise of the automotive press and industry analysts, but our product strategy of offering affordable German engineering has clearly resonated with the American public.”
